�Fine. I�ll tell you. To be honest� I was attracted by his face.�

�Mommy, you were a vain young lady, weren�t you? When you met such a handsome man back then, you were smitten by his charm. It was love at first sight!�

Renee recalled her past. It was rather ridiculous. She was clearly such a rational person. She never fell for a man so easily. In fact, she�d respond coldly to all her admirers. However, she ended up falling for Stefan, whom she�d only met on a single occasion.

She fell in love with him right away just because he was handsome. After that, she willingly became his wife for four years. Those were the loneliest years of her life� and she deserved it!

�Mommy, Abby feels the same way you do. I also fell in love with Daddy at first sight. I�ve never seen such a good-looking man. I�ve decided that we�ll stay with him from now!� Abby said in a serious tone.

�Abby, you�re being too naive. So what if he�s good-looking? Mommy needs someone who can love and protect her�This jerk clearly doesn�t love her, and he won�t protect her. Mommy won�t be happy if she stays with him!� Adie exclaimed.

Renee was quick to agree. �Your brother is right. You have to find someone who�s good to you and not just someone you like. Looks alone won�t bring you happiness!�

Later in the evening, Renee finally coaxed the talkative children into sleeping. To be more precise, Abby was the talkative one. She kept pestering Renee to talk about her past life with Stefan.

Adie refuted all night long, but it was to no avail. He, too, was forced to listen to Renee�s stories about her life with Stefan.

In the end, Abby�s conclusion was that Stefan was a good person who could be forgiven. Adie, on the other hand, concluded that Stefan was terrible and couldn�t be forgiven.

After the children fell asleep, Renee found herself wide awake. She decided to take a walk in the garden for some fresh air.

When she opened the door, she was shocked to find Stefan standing right outside the door. She wondered how long he�d been standing there. She gasped in surprise. �W-Why aren�t you in bed? Why are you standing here? You gave me a fright!�

Renee�s tone wasn�t exactly gentle when she looked at him and questioned him.

�I couldn�t sleep. The moon looks beautiful tonight. I thought I�d ask you to go and check it out with me,� Stefan said nonchalantly.

�Erk-hem!� Renee was suddenly lost for words.

This wasn�t Stefan�s usual behavior. He even said, �The moon looked beautiful.� Was a cold-blooded guy like him even capable of noticing when the moon was beautiful?

From Renee�s perspective, he was probably plotting something sinister again!

�Let�s go. The kids are asleep anyway. We�ll go for a walk.� Stefan started walking down the stairs after finishing his sentence.

Renee looked at him from behind. Her heart started racing, and she followed him without thinking too much. Besides, she was planning to go for a walk anyway. Her mood wasn�t about to be ruined by him!

The Hunt family�s residence had one of the largest gardens around. It used to be Renee�s favorite area. She had carefully planted sunflowers that lasted through all four seasons. That�s why these sunflowers were always in full bloom, and they were now taller than the average person. JrNovels.com
